Oscar Wilde
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde

Terrance Dicks
“No point in being a grown-up if you can't be childish.”
Terrance Dicks, Doctor Who and the Giant Robot

Ivan Turgenev
“Poetry is the language of the gods. I love poems myself. But poetry is not only in poems; it is diffused everywhere, it is around us. Look at those trees, that sky on all sides there is the breath of beauty, and of life, and where there is life and beauty, there is poetry also.”
Ivan Turgenev, Rudin

Winston S. Churchill
“If you cannot read all your books...fondle them---peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so that you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends; let them, at any rate, be your acquaintances.”
Winston S. Churchill

Elizabeth Bowen
“People must hope so much when they tear streets up and fight at barricades. But, whoever wins, the streets are laid again and the trams start running again. One hopes too much of destroying things. If revolutions do not fail, they fail you.”
Elizabeth Bowen, The House in Paris
